Let me see: a white southern populist. Huey Long? David Duke? Were you there when they changed the name of your "populist" group from White Citizens Council to Concerned Citizens Council? To draw a parallel between Obama and either Lenin or Hitler is transcendent ignorance of the first order. Barack is firmly within the liberal tradition of American thought, meaning liberal in the broadest sense, not as the epithet Limbaugh and you and yours throw around in the way that Germans spat out the word "juden" in the thirties. The whole idea of self governance is liberal. You want conservative? find a dictatorship or a monarchy. Read some history. Please correct me, but my mental image of you is the John Goodman character in O Brother Where Art Thou. He was a while southern populist, too.
